Mark Nystrom’s artwork explores visualizations of complex information and includes drawings, installations, projections and screen-based projects. His work has been shown in Asheville, Raleigh, Boston, New York, Philadelphia and other cities across the United States. In 2010, prints of his wind drawings were on exhibit at the Green Hill Center for North Carolina Art in Greensboro where he also showed a wind drawing being rendered in real time using weather instruments placed on the roof of the building. In the spring and summer of 2012, another real-time wind drawing will be on display as part of the Prime Time: New Media Juried Exhibition at the Asheville Art Museum.
